Specialising in Reactivity and Lead Pulling

Training in real-life situations!

Have you ever said that your dog is perfectly behaved inside the house, but as soon as you go out into public they're not? They pull on the lead, they react at other dogs or humans, they don't listen to you, all of our training is done out in public to teach your dog how to behave in public, without bribing them with food.

Are you causing the frustration in your dog?

Are you pulling the dog away?
Are you trying to block their view?
Are you talking and reinforcing the bad behaviour?
Are you using too many treats?

All of these are going to cause frustration for your dog, if you're doing ANY of these, seek help, before it gets worse. Not from the Vets because they're going to push medications which only masks the problem.

PRIVATE 1 ON 1 CONSULTATION

Our one-on-one consultations take place in public settings where you actually want to take your dog—not artificial setups. Your first consultation begins in a calm location where we will see your dog's behaviour, and show you how to fix it. Whether your dog struggles with reactivity, anxiety, in-home behavioural issues, or other challenges I'll demonstrate proven techniques with your dog, even bringing our dog along for reactive consultations, showing you exactly what success looks like and how to replicate it, and if we can't get the job done the consultation is on the house. Serving Victoria, our approach is practical, observable, and designed for real results you can implement immediately.

If you choose to do ongoing training we will talk about that on the day.
